Missed Calls

Chapter 23

ELI

"The husband of Daniel Simmons." The doctor called out making all of us stand up.

"She said the husband, sit yall ass down." Avery whisper yelled at Dallas and Jacob.

"Is he alright?" I asked worriedly.

"He's conscious and he's stable and he can talk, but he hasn't come to all the way just yet." She said.

"Well is he gonna be alright?" I questioned.

"Only time will tell. We're about to take him into and in depth check up and he does have to get a whole lot of stitches." She answers.

"Okay so whats next?" I wondered.

"Well when we told him about it he said that he wanted his husband and that he wasn't gonna do any procedures without seeing you first." She told me.

"Alright, I feel like I need to see him anyway." I replied.

"Okay Mr...what should I call you?" She asked.

"You can call me Eli." I said.

"Well Im doctor Winbush nice to meet you." She spoke.

"Its nice to meet you too." I said nervously shaking her hand.

"Well Eli follow me, and don't be so nervous he will be fine." Doctor Winbush said patting my back.

"We headed up the elevator and on the way up I felt my phone vibrating in my pocket. I grabbed it and I saw a DM from Instagram. I opened it and I saw a message from an unknown page.

I looked at it and it said "Im glad we finally finished business with football boy today🗡⚰."

I started to feel more disappointed than before. We approached Diggy's room door and once it was opened I saw Diggy connected to a whole bunch of machines with a oxygen tube in his nose. I felt tears sting the back of my eyes.

DIGGY

I sit and watch the ceiling and I hear my door ooen. "Mr Simmons you have a visitor." I heard Dr. Winbush say.

I looked over and I saw Eli enter the room with her. I lightly smiled because I was just so glad to see him especially after what happened today.

"Thanks Doc." I say as I see Eli in the doorway.

"Ill be back, but Ill give you two some alone time." She said.

"Diggy." I heard Eli's hurt voice.

"Eli." I said in a low tired voice trying to move up on my bed.

"No, dont move baby Im here." Eli says as he rushes over to my side kneeling down at my bed.

I looked at his hurt face, he looked so defeated and I hated to see him like this. I was just happy to see him, but he couldn't stop crying."

"Baby, stop crying Im okay." I said to him lifting my hand wiping his tears away.

He held my hand and pressed his lips against it. He finally looked up at me in my eyes. "I missed you." He spoke.

"Ive missed you too bae." I replied.

"Im so sorry for letting this happen, I just haven't been there for you when you needed me most and because of that now we are here, and its all my fault. Im so sorry Dig-." He cried.

"Shhhh, dont say that. You're here now and thats all that matters." I say.

"Diggy Ive just messed up so bad, I thought you were dead." He said to me.
